The guild members entered the dungeon one after another with Ricardo and other tanks leading the charge. The dungeon itself wasn't unique and had the standard structure that most of the dungeons had. The only odd thing was the crystals present in the walls which were illuminating the surroundings. As they moved further into the unknown, most of them were relaxed because their rank was above dungeon grade. But for some like Arnold who was at D or D+ rank, it wasn't that easy. However, Arnold could summon frost golems to save him if he needed so it wasn't that tense for him.

"Wolves!" Ashley, one of the four tanks whispered after seeing a pack of 14 wolves roaming around. These were no ordinary wolves either they could transform and when they used this ability their stats got a significant boost. But they got lucky because these wolves had blackish-brown fur signifying that they were weaker than normal wolves who had grey fur and were kind of tough to deal with, whereas the wolves having white fur were the most dangerous because apart from transforming, they had other hidden abilities as well.

"Tanks take the position and aggravate the wolves, mages be ready to attack, EL prepare-" while Ricardo was still giving orders to others the wolf had already sensed them and were about to attack an unguarded mage who was standing further away from everyone else, Ricardo rushed to tackle down the wolf but his speed was too slow, he wouldn't reach there in time. The mage also saw the wolf and was madly chanting defensive spells at herself, but the defence wasn't her strong suit and everyone knew that.

Just when the wolf was about to slash the mage with its claw, suddenly a wall appeared in front of her. The wolf couldn't lose its momentum and before it could do anything numerous spikes appeared on the wall. The wolf slammed hard into the spiky wall. The spikes penetrated the wolf's body at various places, the wolf whined in pain for a couple of moments before dying. Everyone turned around to look at the only person in their team who had the ability to manipulate earth.

"What are you looking at? Kill the rest of them!" Arnold barked at the others.

Alice smiled and went to check on the mage while the others dealt with the rest of the wolves. Arnold managed to kill two more wolves, he then ordered the golem to collect the crystals from the carcass of the wolves.

Killing one wolf gave him 150 EXP thus he was almost level 14. After the fight was over the mage rushed over to Arnold.

"Thank you for saving me. I was wrong about you, I hope you can forgive me." She said, her gaze fixed at the ground. She knew that the wolf itself wasn't high levelled and wouldn't have been able to kill her but then again she didn't want to test the theory.

"I just got lucky... please be careful next time..." he replied and walked away.

After resting for a minute or so, they decided to venture deeper inside the dungeon, soon they entered a clearing. It was a large room made of black and blue rocks. In front of them, there were three different passages. They had stopped there to divide the party into three so that they could cover more ground.

Arnold was to team up with Alice, Ricardo and EL. It was decided that the team which finds the boss room would immediately notify the others through the communicators and wait for the others to arrive. The boss was most probably of B rank, hence no one was to act on their own. With this the teams parted ways, Ashley's team headed inside the passage on the right while the team which Miguel was a part of head into the passage in the middle. Arnold's team went inside the left passage.

*****

"Damn it! The communicators aren't working in here. Who knows what's happening with the others." Ricardo loudly cursed the dungeon.

So far they had to fight four groups of monsters each of them was either of E or D ranked monsters and hence were immediately dealt with. Arnold even managed to level up by two levels. But then all of a sudden the monsters stopped appearing, although it was suspicious, it wasn't like they could do anything about it. Seeing that he had nothing else to do, Arnold decided to increase his attributes by using the saved up attribute points and opened up the main interface.

He spent 5 attribute points each to increase his stamina, agility and evade to 35 to increase his base stats to 35 and then allotted the remaining point into strength.

While he was playing around with the interface, a gust air blew inside the dungeon. He closed the interface and looked up, at the far end of the dungeon, a faint structure of a door could be seen. They carefully made their way to the end. Due to old habit, Arnold grabbed a glow stick from the bag the golem was carrying and threw it towards the end. The glow stick collided with the metal door. They had finally found the boss room of the dungeon.

"Since the communicator isn't working, I'll go and inform the others. EL you're coming with me." Ricardo said and turned around, EL grabbed him by the shoulder and whispered in his ear.

"I'm tired because of the walking. Take someone else." EL said loudly and waved his hand.

"I can send my summons if you like." Arnold pitched in.

"Can they speak?" EL asked sizing up the golem who was carrying their bag.

"Um... can you?" Arnold asked the golem to which he shrugged and shook his head.

"Then it's of no use. Alice, do you mind coming with me?" Ricardo asked.

"No, of course not but..." She looked at EL and then at Arnold, she knew EL didn't like Arnold for some reason and wasn't sure about leaving him alone with EL, but before she could say anything else Ricardo started marching at full speed to get the others, she had no choice but to follow him.

*****

After a few minutes of waiting, out of boredom Arnold decided to try and use his [FORESIGHT] skill just to get familiar with the skill.

A mysterious aura surrounded him, it felt like his soul was being guided away from his body and everything turned black before it turned to normal. The only difference was that he was now looking at himself from a third-person perspective.

He saw himself standing near the gate next to his summoned Golem when all of a sudden the door leading to the boss room opened and someone pushed him inside before hastily closing the door.

The vision ended there and he couldn't see who pushed him inside the dungeon, but it didn't require Einstein's brain to know who would've pushed him through the gate, the only person with him was EL. After a brief moment, he returned to his normal self.

He felt like he was experiencing déjà vu, and sure enough, the gate suddenly opened and EL tried to push him inside, it was all happened too fast and Arnold couldn't get out of the way in time, but he was prepared and managed to grab EL by his armour pulling him inside the room before the doors closed.
